No one expected Vijay Kumar to win a medal at the Olympics. High hopes were from Abhinav Bindra and Gagan Narang. He came from no where and won us silver. I remember we were so happy that day. Our unsung hero 🇮🇳
these guys are placed 25 meters or 82 feet away from 5 targets with a 10 cm diameter . They also are given only 4 seconds to shot all 5 targets. Some people couldn't even make 1 of the 5 shots let alone shot 5 back to back hits. These guys are some of the most skilled marks men on the planet with almost inhuman steadiness and lets not forget muscle memory. If you cant recognize what these guys do as impressive you truly do know nothing marksmanship.

Makes it easier to concentrate. Simple as that. And if you want moving targets go watch skeet. The point of this is shooting as accurately and quickly as possible. Believe it or not, hand guns are not very accurate.
So, for this to be entertaining, we need to see the damn targets. Also, the green lights are going right to left, for some reason? It's not very intuitive.
lightmobile I agree about seeing the targets. The lights make sense if seeing them at the event facing the target. It's not completely obvious at first to viewers like us when also looking back at the shooter.
Yes They have both eyes open (or at least i think they do) the plastic things above their non-shooting eye cover up vision for that eye so they don't have to waste effort on closing it (it's a big deal) 10 cm (less than a foot) from 25 metres (about 82 feet)
Pseudotaxus34 I don't entirely understand this, wouldn't you want as much visual info as possible for enhanced tracking coordination and small compensations? I ask because I come from a skeet shooting background where you always shoot with both eyes open for the reasons I mentioned. This type of shooting here is a world I don't know too much about.
Nylok4601 I used to shoot .22 caliber rifles, and because the target is pretty non-moving while you are looking down sights, you end up seeing the perspective of both the eye that is looking down the sights and the eye that is to the side of the sights, and your focus can drift from the actual target. Closing your eye strains muscles, so they have this little plastic thing so that they can only see a straight line from eye to sights to target. Unlike skeet/trap, there is no need for enhanced tracking coordination (and compensation) because the target does not move. Does this help? EDIT: The only visual info you need is the perspective of the one eye looking down sights.
Is being able to hit a tennis ball size target at 25m with a pistol that hard because its really easy with a 22 with open sights but I've never shot a pistol so I assume that a much shorter barrel really effects the accuracy to the point that this is an excellent achievement
Not everything in the Olympics is a test of athletic skill. This is a test of skill. Many other events in the Olympics are tests of skill. Athletic or not, it is worth noting that these men, and the women who do the same thing, are very skilled. Not everything has to be a show of physical might.
25m Rapid Fire Piston is only one event in entire conglomerate of Olympic shooting sports.. Over the years, many different shooting events have been taken out and others reinstated. It happens in the Olympics. Shooting does not use the same facilities as most of the other sports and does not effect other sports at all. So why does it matter?
Mr Cuba comes by kills everything... I mean hits every target lol. You know deep down the police be like dude you a hit man come win us a gold and we'll give you a clean sheet.... All jokes aside.. these all good with a gun cos the target area for a green light ain't big and its quick fire so fair play guys and massive respect to the disabled guys n girls that shoot...
wish they'd show the frigging targets, what are they shooting at? is it the centre of the big target that I've caught a glimpse of? if it's any part of it then I'm joining up for the Olympics right now! lol

why won't they show us the targets, it would be a lot more interesting than to watch them shoot.
Totally agree.
agree
Probably won't see the actual target because of how small it is. But it would be nice to have a graphic on screen.
as in air pistol
Wait what? How are they missing then? Like when they hit the paper they really miss by a lot? Like how is this scored? Sorry for the 10000 questions.

Pardini pistols are very accurate. They have springs and weights to reduce muzzle lift. Extremely accurate.
Pistol in general is not accurate . For accuracy go to rifle
They need to bring Hickok45 in here.
Andrew Nguyen yup
Jerry Miculek
Oh theres a target, lets kill that.. BOOM got em. This us a good gun but not very practical.... Hed also have a beer helmet lol.
"Let's see if we can hit the gong"
They probably want other people to actually win

I miss the Olympics
they dont even show what the contestants are shooting at
Yeh ik that really annoyed me
They were all communist countries, so I would guess capitalists.

It's random spectators from the audience.
They're shooting at people posting 'Nobody' comments from youtube.
I'm on this random spree of 2012 Olympic videos rn
Vijay Kumar 🧡🧡🧡. So proud of you sir.
In the end robocop won
1. Do they have to stand in that position?
2. Are they only allowed to shoot with one eye open?
3. How big is the target zone that they have to hit?
Yes
They have both eyes open (or at least i think they do) the plastic things above their non-shooting eye cover up vision for that eye so they don't have to waste effort on closing it (it's a big deal)
10 cm (less than a foot) from 25 metres (about 82 feet)

Ahh gotcha, so using both would be a little extra effort for no real benefit. Makes sense, thanks!

ISSF for pistols is .22, and likely the same caliber is used in Olympics.

nice winning pupo...
The fun of the shooting is not the shooting but seeing the target precisely destroyed. I demand to see the marks.
There are no marks you idiot
The difference between this and actual shooting is insane this is completely different
The Olympics should bring in USPSA and IDPA style shooting!
awesome 👍👍 vinay sir
well done my son vijay kumar
If this is rapid fire, the atf is gonna classify me as a machine gun lol
Not all olympic sports are about fitness. Some, such as this, are about skill and speed.
His power level is over 9000!
How much time do they have to shoot the pistol?

congratulations
what kind of pistols are they using and what caliber? never seen this in my life
it's just a .22lr pistol, probably subsonic rounds. This is the shooting sports equivalent of bike racing with training wheels.
typen3k0 why do those handguns look so weird lol I have never seen anything like it
Ean Wilk I heard from another comment that it is for recoil compensation and stability
It would be nice to know what they're shooting at
I think the shy kid in the back of my class that gets bullied all the time could hit all five easily.
Wait how does this work, does the gun shoot on their own or how much time do they have to shoot all?
Were you blind? 😮
How does the monocle work? And what is the purpose of the eye cover? I'm not really sure what to google for more info...
You only use 1 eye to aim with the iron sights on the pistol, it help them not have to keep the other eye closed/keep focus on the sight
this guys must be good at laser tag
